Like a Sword Over Damocles lyrics

Dark winter

Necrotic

Seems this will never end

Transgressions

My burdens are forever

Denial

Holding on

It's grip, it chokes the life

Of what was and will be

The Eternal present

Who of you will dare to sit in the throne

Who of you will dare

You keep hanging this over me

Like a sword over Damocles

My life held by a thread and it's starting to sway

Like a sword over Damocles

Declension

This poison

The power killing me

Detachment

Who am I?

What have I done?

The violence

Full of hate

The habit of our sins

Atonement buried in an unmarked grave

Who of you will dare to sit in the throne

Who of you will dare

You keep hanging this over me

Like a sword over Damocles

My life held by a thread and it's starting to sway

Like a sword over Damocles

Is it all you hoped for

Is it all that you dreamed

Is it all you hoped for

Feel the weight being king

Is it all you hoped for

Feel the weight being king

Who of you will dare to sit in the throne

Who of you will dare

You keep hanging this over me

Like a sword over Damocles

My life held by a thread and it's starting to sway

Like a sword over Damocles

You keep hanging this over me

Like a sword over Damocles

My life held by a thread and it's starting to sway

Like a sword over Damocles
